Abstract

CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBP alpha) and C/EBP beta, liver specific transcription factors, are involved in hepatocyte proliferation and differentiation. The expression level of the C/EBP alpha and C/EBP beta genes were examined between tumor and non-tumorous tissues of the same hepatoc...
